Tumour suppressors can be inactivated in cancer not only as a result of mutation, but also by proteolytic degradation. Here the authors show that, during glioma development, the accumulation of the ubiquitin ligase praja2 sustains tumour growth by degrading MOB1—a core component of the Hippo pathway.
